Circuit City RAM DramaSo the idiot at Circuit City sold me the wrong ram. I specifically asked if it was the appropriate ram for the laptop I was picking up at their store. How totally inconvenient is it to get home and have it be the wrong type.

Linux take me awayThis can't be good. The computer is actually fine, it is just angry that I wanted to uninstall windows.

I guess it is my repsosnibilty for making a page about installing suse 9.2 on the sony s360 because if you search for it on (GOOGLE - suse sony s360 laptop) you get my journal. I can't wait to get started.

Vaio Part 73I hate sony. I should have realized this after (e:terry) ' s mp3 player and how much proprietary crap that we had to deal with. that mp3 player lives in the trash now. Luckily, the vaio will not suffer a similar fate but it is annoying that I can't use half the features like the function key shortcuts for brightness and sound, the wireless internet, the ethernet, etc. I am busy searching for drivers but it is such a pain and I have very little time right now. Next time I am going to forego style and comfort for something less proprietary. Maybe I will change my mind as the week goes on.
At this point I have the graphics card and the sound running. I completely formatted the driver to start again from scratch. Ok, time to install linux.
